The rural population isn’t the issue, it’s suburbia which is where the majority of the US population lives.

It’s not dense enough for public transportation to be viable and it’s zoned in a way that makes pedestrian traffic a non starter.

Suburbia causes a lot of problems. I understand why it exists - owning a house with a yard is nice. I personally wouldn’t want to give that up to live in an urban environment if I didn’t have to

Working long solo sessions of people leaving me the fuck alone tends to be correlated with me getting projects done.

No joke, 50th anniversary of the first F16 flight is coming up very soon.

Granted the guts of that plane have been upgraded over and over, but still.

My Plex is ready.

Eh, I’m here to relax and have fun.

Not be told I’m a piece of shit who deserves to be executed because I had the audacity to be born every ten minutes.

Why does everyone keep saying child poverty?

Like, do children in other countries have some sort of massive wealth I’m not aware of?

I argue that the feel of BotW is a return to Zelda origins. It’s the most any game has felt like the original Zelda.

There original Zelda game was a game about exploring a giant over world to find it’s secrets. The dungeons weren’t puzzle filled, they were essentially just combat challenges.

… It’s that feeling that you are setting out on a difficult journey of exploration across a giant world with no support.

Every Zelda game since the original has felt smaller in comparison because the role of the over world got shrunk to just a thing to connect dungeons.

My favorite is AlttP which I think has the best balance between dungeons and over world exploration, but I prefer over world to modern dungeons we got in skyward sword and such.

S2 was ordered before all of S1 even aired.

Yes, they are doing a genocide.

I’m not sure what other options are available at this point though.

Hamas is extremist to the point where they would be doing a genocide as well if they were in the position to do so.

People say separate the Hamas from the people, but that’s really hard when the members of Hamas are of the people and have the support of a good percentage of them.

If Israel invades on foot and Hamas is threatened they can simply fade back into the population and wait to try again. And the general population will support them in doing so.

The creation of the state of Israel was a mistake and the rise of Hamas is the direct result of decades of apartheid practiced against the Palestinians by the Israeli state.

… But as the issue stands today, I can’t blame Israel in taking extreme action to end the conflict that’s dragged on for nearly a century now.

There is no reasonable path to peace. A two state solution would end with the states at war anyway as both states have extreamists who want to genocide the other in government positions.

And there is no where that would accept the Gaza population as refugees even if you could get them to leave.

So what’s left?

Because I hate typing on mobile devices I don’t like texting.

If you try to have a conversation with me over text Imma either call you if it’s important or start giving you one word answers to everything.

Thankfully most people know better than to try and communicate with me in general!
